Greater Ashmont Main Street’s 4th annual winter holiday house-party is right after the New Year turns. Come share delicious finger-food and drink with your neighbors from around our district as we welcome and toast 2017 together! Stop by before or after your evening’s plans to catch up with friends old and new and see one last gasp of beautiful holiday decorations before they are packed away for another year.

The house-party will be hosted by Jeff Gonyeau (Member of our Board of Directors) and Jack Dennerlein on Saturday, January 7, from 6-9 pm at 86 Ocean Street, Dorchester MA 02124.

Advance registration is strongly encouraged! Advance tickets ($30) are available for purchase with a credit card (via paypal, but paypal account not required) at tinyurl.com/Toast2017 or by mailing a check with appropriate memo line to Greater Ashmont MS at 1914 Dorchester Ave, Dorchester, MA 02124. Door tickets will also be sold as space allows ($35; credit card, check, or cash). We hope you’ll join us! For more information, contact info@greaterashmont.org or call us at 617-825-3846.

From all of us here at Greater Ashmont Main Street, we wish you a very Happy Holidays and a wonderful 2017.
